She  and  members  of  the  Task  Team  made  a  presentation  explaining  some  of  the  work  of  that  group  using 
the  seed  packet  as  a  metaphor  of  vision  for  the  ftiture. 

The  Rev.  Ms.  Cherie  Daniels  and  Ms.  Marge  Eramo,  along  with  other  members  of  the  1999  Advance 
Planning  Committee,  presented  a  brief  skit  of  the  first  100  years  of  Conference  history.  Assembled 
delegates  were  given  "I'll  Be  There"  buttons  to  increase  visibility  of  the  upcoming  celebration. 

The  Moderator  introduced  the  Rev.  Dr.  Gilbert  Rendle,  Senior  Consultant  with  Alban  Institute,  who 
gave  the  first  of  three  presentations  on  the  theme  of  the  meeting,  "Prepare  Ye  The  Way!"  Dr.  Rendle 
entitied  his  talk  "Living  into  the  Wilderness"  and  spoke  of  the  increasing  distance  between  Biblical  truth 
and  cultural  teaching.  Since  the  1950's,  cultural  teaching  has  moved  from  deferred  gratification  to 
instant  gratification.  Increasingly,  ministry  is  done  in  an  environment  that  is  inhospitable.  More  and 
more  what  is  heard  in  church  and  what  is  experienced  in  the  world  are  not  compatible.  In  fact,  they 
might  be  considered  two  different  languages.  Dr.  Rendle  urged  churches  to  learn  the  new  language  and 
enter  into  the  wilderness  of  the  world  to  learn,  to  understand,  to  trust,  and  to  dwell. 

Dr.  Rendle's  presentation  was  followed  by  a  "gestured  prayer"  and  liturgical  dance  reflection  by 
Ms.  Donna  LaRue. 

Following  an  introduction  of  the  staff  of  die  Conference  by  Mr.  Whiten,  the  Church  Growth  Task  Force 
of  the  Commission  for  Local  Church  Life  and  Renewal  presented  a  skit  comparing  "First  Church 
Jurassic  Park"  with  "Lazarus  United  Church  of  Christ." 

After  announcements  the  Vice  Moderator  recessed  the  Annual  Meeting  until  4:00  PM. 

After  a  presentation  entided  "The  Sights  and  Sounds  of  Chile",  the  Annual  Meeting  was  reconvened  at 
4:00  PM  by  the  Moderator  who  thanked  Ms.  Katrina  Clinton  for  the  Annual  Meeting  banners  on  stage. 
He  then  introduced  the  Rev.  Ms.  Alice  Mann,  Senior  Consultant  with  the  Alban  Institute,  who  offered 
the  second  presentation  on  the  Annual  Meeting  theme.  Ms.  Mann's  topic  was  "Vital  Churches:  All 
Shapes  and  Sizes."  She  offered  eight  criteria  for  vital,  quality  churches:  l)empowering  pastoral 
leadership,  2)  gift-oriented  lay  ministry,  3)  passionate  spirimality;  4)  functional  structures,  5)  inspiring 
worship,  6)  holistic  small  groups,  7)  need-oriented  evangelism,  and  8)  loving  relationships.  Her 
presentation  was  followed  by  a  body  prayer  and  liturgical  dance  interpretation  by  Ms.  LaRue,  who  was 
joined  by  Ms.  Elizabeth  Tucker  and  Ms.  Michaela  Rudis. 

After  a  song  break,  the  assembled  delegates  were  invited  to  play  "The  GIFT  AND  THE  PROMISE 
Monopoly"  with  Mr.  Jon  McKenna,  die  Rev.  Dr.  Philip  J.  Mayher,  and  the  Rev.  Dr.  William 
Abernethy.  The  Vice  Moderator  then  gave  announcements  and  recessed  the  meeting  until  Sunday 
morning  at  8:30. 

Sunday,  June  7,  1998 

The  Vice  Moderator  called  the  Sunday  program  session  to  order  at  8:30  AM  by  telling  the  story  of  a 
small  bird  called  a  redknot  and  offering  an  opening  prayer.  Speakouts  followed. 

The  Moderator  called  upon  Ms.  Denise  Karuth  who  presented  the  1998  Haystack  Awards  for  the 
Commission  for  Mission  Development  and  Social  Responsibility.  Recipients  were  Russ  and  Dot 
Weinhold,  members  of  Foster  Memorial  Church,  UCC,  in  Springfield,  for  Charitable  Mission  and  Clark 
and  Kay  Taylor,  members  of  the  Congregational  Church  of  Needham,  for  Social  Justice. 

The  Rev.  Mr.  Robert  F.  R.  Peters,  Executive  Director  of  the  Boston  Seaman's  Friend  Society,  gave  a 
brief  overview  of  die  ministry  of  that  organization  and  announced  the  new  working  name  of  Seafarer's 
Friend  Society. 

Mr.  Smith,  Chair  of  the  Board  of  Directors,  requested  a  moment  of  personal  privilege  to  announce  his 
request  to  die  Commission  on  Leadership  Development  to  make  a  priority  the  review  of  the  newly  voted 
Clergy  Compensation  Guidelines.  At  issue  was  the  stipulation  that  any  open  position  not  meeting  the 
guidelines  would  be  advertised  by  the  Conference  as  a  part-time  position.    Mr.  Smith  also  announced  his

appointment  of  the  Rev.  Dr.  John  Williams,  a  member  of  the  Board  of  Directors,  as  liaison  to  the 
commission  for  this  issue. 

The  Moderator  then  reintroduced  Dr.  Rendle  and  Ms.  Mann,  who  offered  the  last  of  their  presentations 
on  the  theme  of  the  199*  Annual  Meeting.  In  "Discerning  the  Future"  the  presenters  emphasized  the 
need  to  honor  the  voice  of  tradition  and  history  in  the  midst  of  change.  Discernment  is  of  utmost 
importance  before  moving  ahead.  Dr.  Rendle  and  Ms.  Mann  suggested  that  often  in  deliberations  the 
voice  of  the  very  large  "middle  ground"  is  lost  in  the  shouts  of  the  two  extremes.  Discernment  includes 
hearing  all  of  the  voices,  so  safe  space  must  be  made  for  all  to  speak.  Local  congregations  and  the 
Conference  are  on  journeys  of  starting  and  stopping.  Dr.  Rendle  and  Ms.  Mann  said  in  conclusion. 

After  a  song  break,  there  was  a  time  of  "gestured  prayer"  and  limrgical  dance  with  Ms.  LaRue.  The 
Moderator  then  called  upon  Mr.  Rufus  Cushman,  who  was  joined  by  Mr.  Deal,  Ms.  Aney  and  the  Rev. 
Dr.  Paul  Adkins  for  a  special  celebration  of  the  ministry  of  the  Rev.  Mr.  Stephen  C.  Gray,  who  has 
resigned  as  Associate  Conference  Minister  for  Stewardship  and  Financial  Development  to  become 
Conference  Minister  of  the  Indiana-Kentucky  Conference. 

The  Moderator  introduced  a  video  which  provided  information  to  the  delegates  about  the  200*  Annual 
Meeting  and  Bicentennial  Celebration  to  be  held  in  Worcester,  MA,  on  April  24-25,  1999. 

The  video  was  followed  by  a  presentation  concerning  the  United  Church  Board  for  World  Ministries 
given  by  Mr.  William  Nelson,  the  Rev.  Ms.  Cherie  Daniels,  the  Rev.  Ms.  Marilyn  Rossier,  Dr.  F. 
Robert  Naka,  and  the  Vice  Moderator. 

The  Vice  Moderator  then  introduced  a  video  of  a  portion  of  the  visit  of  the  "Hechos"  Youth  Theater 
Team  from  the  Pentecostal  Church  of  Chile  to  the  Massachusetts  Conference. 

Ms.  King,  reporting  for  the  Business  Committee,  announced  that  there  was  no  more  business  to  come 
before  the  Annual  Meeting.  Ms.  VanderVliet,  reporting  for  the  Credentials  Committee,  gave  the  final 
attendance  as  follows:  446  lay  delegates,  274  clergy,  5  ex  officii,  10  commissioned  and/or  licensed 
ministers,  76  visitors,  16  staff,  and  53  others  for  a  total  of  880  persons  present  at  this  Annual  Meeting. 

Mr.  Whiten  then  honored  the  Rev.  Ms.  Mary  Giles  and  Mr.  Peter  Koch  as  retiring  members  of  the 
Board  of  Directors.   He  then  introduced  the  newly  elected  members  of  the  Board  of  Directors:   the  Rev. 
Dr.  Charles  Close,  the  Rev.  Ms.  Rayann  Burnham  Cummings,  Mr.  Zack  Deal,  Mr.  Wayne  Frigard,  and 
Ms.  Arline  Rayner.    Mr.  Whiten  also  recognized  Mr.  Deal  for  his  work  as  Moderator  and  introduced 
Ms.  King  as  the  newly  elected  Moderator. 

Mr.  Atkins  and  Ms.  Long  recognized  and  thanked  the  many  people  who  helped  with  the  199*  Annual 
Meeting. 

The  199*  Annual  Meeting  of  the  Massachusetts  Conference  of  the  United  Church  of  Christ  was 
adjourned  at  11:00  AM  for  worship.  The  worship  service,  in  Abbey  Chapel,  included  communion  and  a 
sermon  by  Mr.  Whiten.

Appendix  B  RESOLUTION  ON  ADULT  EDUCATION 

WHEREAS  the  local  congregations  of  the  Massachusetts  Conference  of  the  United  Church  Of  Christ 
include  people  from  different  Christian  fraditions  with  a  wide  range  of  church  experience  and  many

WHEREAS  scripture  links  believing  with  teaching  as  it  asks,  "How  are  persons  to  call  on  one  in  whom 
they  have  not  believed?  And  how  are  they  to  believe  in  one  of  whom  they  have  never  heard?  And  how 
are  they  to  hear  without  someone  to  proclaim  him?  And  how  are  they  to  proclaim  him  unless  they  are

Appendix  C  1999  COMPENSATION  GUffiELINES  FOR 

CALLED  AND  INTERIM  CLERGY 

(for  use  with  Clergy  Compensation  Booklet 
available  from  the  Commission  on  Leadership  Development,  MACUCC) 

The  199th  Annual  Meeting  of  the  Massachusetts  Conference  of  the  United  Church  of  Christ,  concerned 
with  the  growth  of  its  churches  and  the  compensation  of  its  ordained  leaders,  recommends  that  all 
congregations  meet  the  goals  as  outlined  in  Guidelines  for  Clergy  Compensation.  The  guidelines  apply  to 
all  full-time  pastors,  associates  and  assistants. 

Because  die  pastor  of  a  church  is  required  by  the  United  Church  of  Christ  to  be  a  highly  educated  and 
trained  professional,  the  salary  and  housing  package  for  pastors  should  be  congruent  with  the 
compensation  of  other  similarly  trained  professionals  in  the  community.  The  total  compensation  package 
could  be  considered  at  least  equal  to  that  of  the  local  high  school  principal,  showing  consideration  for 
years  of  service,  special  skills  and  training,  and  natural  aptitude.  The  federal  tax  structure  is  unique  for 
clergy,  and  the  compensation  package  should  be  designed  in  such  a  way  as  to  maximize  the  pastor's 
income. 

The  work  schedules  and  compensation  packages  of  local  pastors  should  be  healthy  for  the  pastor  and  for  the 
church.  That  would  require  a  balance  of  time  spent  in  the  church's  ministry  and  time  spent  with  family  and 
friends  ~  a  balance  of  work  and  recreation,  a  balance  of  exercising  die  body  and  the  mind,  a  balance  of  care 
of  others  and  care  for  self. 

Some  churches,  because  of  their  smaller  membership  and/or  financial  constraints,  are  not  able  to  provide 
an  adequate  compensation  package  for  full-time  pastoral  service.  They  are  encouraged  to  consider 
creative  options,  such  as  part-time,  bi-vocational  pastors  or  sharing  a  pastor  with  another  congregation  in 
the  area  in  order  to  combine  resources  to  offer  adequate  compensation.  In  congregadons  offering  salary 
and  housing  below  the  minimum,  the  position  will  be  considered,  and  advertised  by  the  Conference,  as  a 
part  time  position  and  all  prospective  ministers  will  be  informed  of  this  through  Area  offices. 

THE  199TH  ANNUAL  MEETING  RECOMMENDS  THAT: 

1.  churches  pay  a  minimum  entry-level  cash  salary  according  to  the  table  below  for  a  full-time 
pastor; 

2.  churches  provide  either: 

a.  a  PARSONAGE  with  a  furnishings  allowance,  all  utilities,  and  an  equity  development  plan; 
or 

b.  a  CASH  PACKAGE  sufficient  to  allow  the  minister  to  buy,  ftirnish  and  maintain  a  median- 
priced  house  in  the  church's  community;  the  minimum  cash  package  shall  be  no  less  that 
1/100  per  month  of  the  value  of  a  median-priced  home  in  the  community;  (  for  example:  if 
a  median-priced  house  in  a  community  is  $150,000,  the  church's  minimum  cash  package 
for  housing  would  be  $1,500  per  month,  or  $18,000  per  annum) 

3.  full  benefits  and  professional  expenses  be  provided,  as  listed  below;  benefits  and  professional 
expenses  are  not  to  be  considered  part  of  the  compensation  package; 

4.  churches  already  at  or  above  the  minimum  and  also  fiilly  providing  all  benefits  and  professional 
expenses  as  oudined  in  below  give  at  least  a  cost  of  living  increase  and  consider  a  merit  increase 
also;  and 

5.  the  work  schedule  of  local  pastors  be  a  maximum  average  of  40-50  hours  per  week  with  no  more 
than  3  evenings  in  a  given  week;   in  addition,  pastors  take  at  least  1  '/i  days  off  per  week. 

CASH  SALARY  RANGES 

The  cash  salary  ranges  do  NOT  include  housing,  benefits,  professional  or  any  other  expenses.

BENEFITS  AND  PROFESSIONAL  EXPENSES 

A.  SOCIAL  SECURITY  ALLOWANCE 

Since  clergy  are  treated  as  self-employed  for  social  security  purposes,  pastors  must  pay  the 
current  15.3%  on  the  cash  salary  plus  housing  allowance  or  on  cash  salary  plus  the  fair  market 
rental  value  of  the  parsonage  plus  utilities.  Therefore  it  is  recommended  that  churches  pay  7.65% 
of  the  pastor's  salary  plus  housing  allowance  or,  where  a  parsonage  is  provided,  7.65%  of  fair 
market  rental  value  plus  cost  of  utilities  for  social  security. 

B.  BEr>JEFITS 

1.  annuity  -  mmimum  of  14%  of  base  salary  plus  housing  allowance  (or  14%  of  130%  of 
base  salary  if  parsonage  is  provided)  paid  quarterly  to  the  UCC  Pension  Board 

2.  life  insurance  and  disability  benefit  plan  -  disability  income  insurance  and  decreasing 
term  life  insurance  through  UCC  program;  cost  is  1%  of  base  salary  plus  housing 
allowance  or,  where  a  parsonage  is  provided,  of  130%  of  base  salary 

3.  group  life  insurance  -  additional  decreasing  term  life  insurance  available  through  the 
Pension  Boards  for  $50  per  year 

4.  medical/dental  insurance  -  available  through  the  UCC  Pension  Boards 

5.  holiday  and  vacation  time  -  usual  holidays  (or  compensation  time)  and  4  weeks  vacation 
per  year 

6.  sabbatical  time  and  funds  (see  Clergy  Compensation  booklet) 

7.  sick  time  -  up  to  30  days  per  year 

8.  maternity/paternity  leave,  including  for  adoption 

C.  PROFESSIONAL  COSTS 

Tax  law  allows  deduction  of  business  expenses  on  Schedule  A  only  after  the  minister  has  spent 
more  than  2%  of  family  adjusted  gross  income  on  such  expenses.  THEREFORE  it  is  important 
that  churches  reimburse  or  pay  directly  all  costs  which  the  pastor  incurs  for  "doing  business"  for 
the  church,  so  that  the  pastor  is  not  paying  income  tax  for  church  expenses.  These  should  include 
but  not  be  limited  to: 

1.  auto  reimbursement  -  for  use  of  personal  car  at  IRS  current  rate  of  $.325  plus  tolls  and 
parking  ,  or  an  automobile  provided  by  the  church 

2.  professional  expenses  -  all  expenses  incurred  in  attending  meetings  of  the  Association, 
Conference,  in  participating  in  the  wider  church  and  community;  subscriptions  to  religious 
and  professional  journals,  etc. 

3.  continuing  education 

For  reference,  the  following  is  an  illustration  of  what  is  needed  to  fund  the  POSITION  of  a  pastor 
{salary,  housing,  AND  benefits  and  professional  expenses)  for  a  minister  with  12  years  experience, 
receiving  a  mid-range  salary,  serving  in  a  church  with  150-300  members: 

COMPENSATION: 

salary  $37,500 

housing  allowance  (for  those  not  in  a  parsonage,  $150,000  house)  18,000 

BENEFFTS: 

annuity   (salary  +  housing  x  147b)  7, 770 

life  insurance  and  disability  benefit  plan  (salary  +  housing  x  1%)  555 

group  life  insurance     50 

medical/dental  insurance  (family  plan)  6, 096 

social  security  offset  (salary  +  housing  x  7.65 7o)  4,246 

PROFESSIONAL  COSTS 

professional  expenses  1,500 

continuing  education   720 

auto  reimbursement  (12,000  miles/year  @  $.325 /mile)  3,900 

total  needed  to  fund  the  position  of  minister  $80,337 

It  is  understood  that  some  churches  may  not  be  able  to  meet  these  guidelines  unmediately,  and  may  need 
instead  to  institute  them  over  a  period  of  3-5  years.  It  will  be  important  in  these  instances  to  project  a 
cost  of  living  increase  for  each  year  and  to  make  the  necessary  projection  of  total  dollars  above  where 
the  compensation  package  is  at  present.  Then  simply  divide  by  the  number  of  years  it  will  take  to  reach 
the  goal,  and  increase  by  that  figure  the  annual  compensation  package  over  the  3-5  year  period.

of  an  outmoded,  ineffective  and  ...  approach  to  the  problem  of  capital  crimes";  and 

WHEREAS  the  Seventh,  Ninth,  Eleventh  and  Twelfth  General  Synods  of  the  United  Church  of  Christ 
have  declared  their  opposition  to  the  death  penalty  as  a  means  of  restorative  justice:  and 

WHEREAS  a  preponderance  of  religious  bodies  oppose  capital  punishment  as  contrary  to  our 
understanding  of  the  Christian  faith  and  the  New  Testament  call  to  redemptive  love,  mercy  and  sanctity 
of  life;  and 

WHEREAS  as  Christians,  taught  to  forgive  seventy  times  seven  (Matt.  18:21-22),  we  are  not  to  allow 
fear  or  anger  or  racism  or  any  other  prejudice  to  interfere  with  a  loving  and  compassionate  approach  to 
any  issue;  and 

WHEREAS  the  death  penalty  does  nothing  to  heal  the  pain  of  the  families  of  murder  victims  except  to 
reward  them  with  vengeance,  a  reward  which  cannot  be  defended  ft^om  a  Christian  standpoint;  and 

WHEREAS  it  has  been  demonstrated  that  the  death  penalty  is  applied  discriminately  toward  African- 
Americans,  Hispanics,  Native  Americans  and  poor  persons  of  every  race,  especially  toward  anyone 
found  guilty  of  murdering  a  white  person;  and 

WHEREAS  some  who  have  been  executed  have  been  later  found  to  be  innocent,  including  at  least  23 
people  during  this  century;  and 

WHEREAS  in  recent  years  at  least  three  persons  convicted  of  first  degree  murder  in  the  Commonwealth 
were  subsequently  found  to  be  innocent  of  the  crime  and  would  have  been  executed  had  the  death  penalty 
been  in  effect; 

THEREFORE  BE  IT  RESOLVED  that  die  199*  Annual  Meeting  of  the  Massachusetts  Conference  of  the 
United  Church  of  Christ  reaffirms  opposition  to  the  death  penalty  and  joins  the  call  by  the  American  Bar 
Association  and  many  other  organizations  for  an  immediate  national  moratorium  on  the  use  of  the  death 
penalty;  and 

BE  IT  FURTHER  RESOLVED  diat  die  199*  Annual  Meeting  of  die  Massachusetts  Conference  of  die 
United  Church  of  Christ  urges  its  members  to  think,  speak,  and  act  in  ways  that  will  strengthen 
opposition  to  the  death  penalty  in  Massachusetts,  offering  the  following  suggestions: 

1.  Find  appropriate  opportunities  to  discuss  the  ethical  issues  raised  by  capital  punishment  in  view  of 
Christian  Scriptures,  tradition,  reason,  and  experience. 

2.  Circulate  the  text  of  this  resolution  as  well  as  the  policy  statement  of  the  Massachusetts  Council  of 
Churches  both  within  and  beyond  your  context. 

3.  Consider  using  opportunities  for  local  newspaper  "op  ed"  columns,  letters  to  the  editor,  cable 
television  programs,  and  other  similar  means,  to  stimulate  community  discussion. 

4.  Write  (The  State  House,  Boston,  MA  02133)  or  call  (617-722-2000)  your  own  State  Senator  or 
Representative,  expressing  your  opposition  to  the  death  penalty. 

5.  Use  the  opportunities  in  fall  1998  legislative  and  gubernatorial  campaigns  to  make  your  views  known 
to  potential  candidates  and  to  elicit  their  views. 

6.  Join  the  "Moratorium  Now"  campaign  of  Equal  Justice  USA  by  obtaining  an  organizing  packet  and 
working  on  getting  a  death  penalty  moratorium  resolution  passed  by  your  local  church,  city  or  town 
government,  and/or  other  local  organizations.   Contact  Equal  Justice  USA  at  P.O.  Box  5206,

Appendix  E  RESOLUTION  ON  OUR  STEWARDSHIP  OF  WEALTH 

WHEREAS  we  cannot  serve  God  and  wealth  (Matthew  6:24);  and 

WHEREAS  the  prophet  Isaiah  exhorts  us  to  "loose  the  bonds  of  injustice,  to  let  the  oppressed  go  free,  to 
share  our  bread  with  the  hungry  and  bring  the  homeless  poor  into  our  houses"  (58:6,7);  and 

WHEREAS  Christ  still  coines  to  us  in  the  "least  of  these"  who  are  hungry,  thirsty,  strangers,  naked, 
sick  and  in  prison  (Matthew  25:  31-46),  challenging  us  to  love  our  neighbor  as  ourselves  (Luke  10:27); 
and 

WHEREAS  the  profound  suffering  of  our  sisters  and  brothers  and  the  degradation  of  Creation  are  too 
often  treated  as  irrelevant  by  a  seemingly  indifferent  Church;  and 

WHEREAS  our  faith  and  tradition  assure  us  that  we  have  power  in  the  struggle  for  justice,  despite  our 
feelings  of  vulnerability  and  impotence;  and 

WHEREAS  our  capacity  to  so  witness  depends  on  our  being  rooted  in  fellowship  and  prayer; 

WHEREAS  poverty,  hunger,  homelessness,  and  disease  are  increasing  here  and  abroad,  millions  of  our 
sisters  and  brothers  have  their  God-given  dignity  and  personhood  ignored  and  dieir  lives  reduced  to  roles 
as  workers  and/or  consumers  without  rights;  and 

WHEREAS  false  notions  of  scarcity  deny  the  truth  that  in  the  United  States  there  is  productive 
abundance  enough  to  provide  an  adequate  standard  of  living  for  all;  and 

WHEREAS  because  "the  accident  of  birth"  and  chance  are  most  responsible  for  conditions  of  physical  or 
mental  handicap,  ill  health  and  poverty,  it  is  unacceptable  to  withhold  the  necessities  of  decent  living  to 
such  individuals;  and 

WHEREAS  exaggerated  stories  of  "welfare  queens"  fraudulendy  draining  money  from  the  public 
treasury  have  resulted  in  legislation  that  causes  the  poor  to  become  poorer,  while  greater  expenditures  of 
tax  money  fund  "corporate  welfare"  that  enables  the  rich  to  get  richer;  and 

WHEREAS  a  study  by  Project  Bread:  The  Walk  for  Hunger  shows  that  one  in  four  children  in 
Massachusetts  go  to  bed  underfed;  and 

WHEREAS  starting  in  December  of  1998  many  more  Massachusetts  children  will  lose  their  state 
assistance  [Temporary  Aid  to  Needy  Families  (TANF)]  and  be  underfed  because  of  the  two-year  time 
limit  for  aid  established  by  the  Legislature;  and 

WHEREAS  improvements  to  the  Food  Stamp  eligibility  requirements  proposed  by  the  Massachusetts 
Legislature  were  vetoed  by  former  Governor  William  Weld  and  the  Legislature  did  not  act  to  overturn 
that  veto,  so  that  today  over  6,000  men  and  women  are  at  risk  of  malnutrition;  and 

WHEREAS  according  to  the  Massachusetts  Affordable  Housing  Alliance,  over  100,000  Massachusetts 
families  are  qualified  for  and  awaiting  housing  assistance;  and 

WHEREAS  most  of  our  privilege  comes  at  the  expense  of  others,  and  victimization  is  sustained  by 
failure  to  recognize  and  confi-ont  this  fact;  and 

WHEREAS  our  silence  is  interpreted  as  concurrence  and/or  complicity;  and 

WHEREAS  the  Church  is  obliged  to  challenge  oppressive  conditions  and  to  oppose  the  suffering  of  our 
brothers  and  sisters; 

THEREFORE  BE  IT  RESOLVED  tiiat  the  199'^  Annual  Meeting  of  the  Massachusetts  Conference  of 
the  United  Church  of  Christ  calls  upon  its  members  to  acknowledge  in  prayer,  fellowship,  and  action  our 
connectedness  to  the  whole  of  humanity,  and  to  seek  ways  to  be  the  stewards  of  our  wealth  and  our 
support  of  an  economic  system  which  values  individuals  according  to  dieir  worth  in  the  marketplace 
instead  of  as  persons  with  intrinsic  worth  endowed  by  their  Creator;  and 

BE  IT  FURTHER  RESOLVED  that  the  199*  Annual  Meeting  of  the  Massachusetts  Conference  of  the 
United  Church  of  Christ  urges  its  members  to  contact  and  actively  engage  elected  officials  and 
candidates,  insisting  on  the  need  for  our  local,  state,  and  federal  governments  to  "promote  the  general 
welfare"  of  all  people,  and  to  build  domestic  and  foreign  policy  that  provides  benefits  that  are  equitable 
for  all  parties;  and 

BE  IT  FURTHER  RESOLVED  that  the  199*^  Annual  Meeting  of  the  Massachusetts.  Conference  of  the 
United  Church  of  Christ  urges  the  Conference  staff,  member  churches,  and  individuals  affiliated  with

Minutes 

those  churches  to  support  promptly  and  actively  by  giving  time  and  money  to  the  advocacy  and 
awareness  raising  efforts  of  the  following: 

1.  The  work  of  the  Time  Limits  Project  endorsed  by  Massachusetts  Law  Reform  Institute  and  a 
coalition  of  advocacy  groups,  which  seeks  legislative  action  to  mitigate  the  effects  of  the  time  limits 
on  the  use  of  Welfare  (i.e.  Temporary  Assistance  to  Needy  Families)  through  increasing  the  number 
of  families  who  may  be  exempted  and  providing  more  realistic  and  effective  opportunities  for 
families  to  escape  poverty; 

2.  The  efforts  being  undertaken  by  Project  Bread  and  other  organizations  to  generate  legislative  and 
judicial  action  to  help  protect  persons  who  are  now  unable  to  access  critical  food  assistance; 

3.  The  efforts  to  create  affordable  housing  being  supported  by  the  Massachusetts  Coalition  for  the 
Homeless  through  its  Faith  Into  Action  Together  program; 

4.  Individual  churches  devote  at  least  one  service  during  the  coming  year  to  address  the  implications  of 
this  resolution,  and  take  action  that  is  appropriate  for  their  communities.

We'll  Be  There  -  Come  Join  Us! 


Two  hundred  years  ago,  members  of  Congregational  churches  came 
together  to  form  what  has  become  the  Massachusetts  Conference,  United 
Church  of  Christ.  Now  432  churches  strong,  we  will  gather  on  April  25, 
1999  to  worship  and  to  celebrate  our  heritage  and  to  embrace  God's 
future. 

Information  about  the  celebration  will  be  sent  regularly  to  our  churches. 
For  more  information  contact  the  Massachusetts  Conference  Office  or 
visit  our  Web  site  at  http://www.macucc.org
